Experience is my biggest concern. So I want to keep this experience wise although I still need to write the MCAT, and have a 3.72 GPA with a goal of getting into my state DO or MD school. Looks like by the time applications roll around I project to have:
~600 hours scribing (will be moved to telescribing for the meantime starting January due to COVID)
~30 hours shadowing primary care
120 hours volunteering
some TAing (grade exams and reports) + a couple other TA positions in past
600 hours research (with poster presentation)
Is this poor? Do I need to ramp things up? I didn't realize I wanted to do medicine until late in the game (although I was a biology major) and had a hard time finding worthwhile experiences. I did volunteer at a clinic but they only had me on clerical tasks and gave patient exposure so I left after 3 months of that (although I got to watch how they ran the clinic as a team).
I think I will raise a redflag because majority of the experiences I've listed are coming from less than a years work (besides the shadowing and some TAing).
